Student Life

What is Student Life?

Student Life is here for you; our most basic task is helping students get the most out of their experiences at the university. With Student Life you can find your own niche on campus; connect with students within or beyond your residence hall, organization, or academic program; get involved in student organizations, leadership opportunities, and campus jobs and internships; and choose the housing and dining and living options that work best for you.

The overarching goal of the Michigan Recreational Sports and Unions Renovations project is to address the aging facilities with infrastructure repairs and to make improvements that support current and future student needs. We are excited to have just completed the Intramural Sports Building in Recreational Sports! Our next project is the Michigan Union renovation.
